New Balance unveils another tonal iteration of the signature 1906R sneaker model for the season with the bright white and red colorway to join its roster. The shoe is made from a blend of materials including mesh and leather fabrication. It features mesh in red as white is overlaying on top.
Specifically, the off-white leather overlays are paired together with a sand tonal touch by the heel guard section. Additional details include the beige tonal ABZORB midsole base with bright pops of red and a caramel tonal rubber sole unit. Rounding out the shoes are the off-white laces at the forefoot, the red New Balancing branding on the tongue, and the red NLOCK emblems to finish the look.
